Ghosts on a Train

To encounter a ghost, especially in the deathlands, is to enter a story that long since should have ended. The actions of these spirits are inexplicable to anyone from the present, as the longer a ghosts exists the further it's mind is unraveled. So the Pride of Duskwall must contend with spirits that burn with enmity that is undeserved but must be faced regardless. Drix is the center of a love triangle. Andrel finds out what's really going on here. Pippin saves the day with panache and flare.

The locomotives of the Imperial Railways go where they are needed, carrying whatever passengers and freight are currently in demand with a not insignificant weight given to payment. Line Bulls who can curry Favor in high places can indirectly leverage that influence and change their train's assignment, as Pippin Mckeel has in order to avoid a return to the Imperial City. Pippin is prickly to some newcomers. Andrel takes a moment to be thankful. Drix has a transformation sequence.

Pippin throttles some rats.

Curious about this show? Listen to hear about Ghosts on a Train from the mouths of the players themselves! Ghosts on a Train is a podcast where the cast plays Ghost Lines by John Harper, a roleplaying game about keeping ghosts off of trains in a dark world of corruption and supernatural danger. The Shattered Isles is a grim place under the thumb of an Immortal Emperor, and though that fact is never forgotten all of the players inject levity into the tone of the game.

Greg is the Gamemaster (or "Conductor" as he calls himself), who brings the locomotive called "The Pride of Duskwall" to life for the players who will defend it. Hannah portrays Andrel Anderson, a plucky young orphan who becomes a "Line Bull" and defends the train to pay off of a debt she incurred while stowing away. Stefen plays Drix, a slow-witted but good-natured man who's livelihood was destroyed so he turned to the rails. And Guy is Pippin, a bumbling drunkard who risks life and limb to escape a past he can't bear to remember.

The consequences of Camilla Wester's ill-fated journey on the Iron Mare have come to the Pride of Duskwall, endangering all aboard; but should Camilla alone shoulder this blame? In special guest Yoshiko's last appearance (for now?) the Line Bulls grapple with loyalties. Andrel gives her trust. Pippin dabs. Drix hardly recognizes his friend. Camilla cannot help but be who she is now. After the main episode, Candace reveals a new supplement to the Suggestion Box; the Spirit Box used for voice messages (link below; apologies for the audio quality, we tried a new recording method and it was convenient but wasn't a good fit)

Line Bulls fight ghosts, but only on rare occasions do they seek out and hunt them. Much of a Line Bull's job is simply to protect a train's passengers and freight long enough for it to be out of danger. As the Pride of Duskwall passes through Ravencourt, what can the Line Bulls do against a supernatural effect with no apparent source? Pippin fancies himself a philosopher. Andrel's suspicions reach their peak. Drix bites off more than he can chew. Camilla's dark secrets are revealed.

Content warning for Pica (the eating of inedible objects) throughout

A Line Bull's primary job is to clear ghosts that are entangled in the electric field of a moving locomotive, focusing on keeping ghosts away while the train moves to the next lightning barrier. The casualty rate increases whenever Line Bulls must guard a stopped train, as the time it takes to escape could mean life or death. Who may be at risk when the Pride of Duskwall stops at the behest of a natural philosopher? Andrel gets suspicious. Drix learns to never meet your heroes. Luck fails Pippin. Camilla makes the ultimate sacrifice. After the main episode, The Pride of Duskwall receives a strange missive from the suggestion box (email below)

The abandoned north railroad splits off between Duskwall and Wintercliff, leaving Akoros as it skirts across the surface of the Void Sea. The Imperial Railways are meant to connect the Imperium yet this track leads beyond the Immortal Emperor's sovereignty, where an unfamiliar train meets a grisly fate. Meanwhile, the Pride of Duskwall prepares to leave Wintercliff with a new train car. Drix has an unexpected reunion. Andrel shares a conspiracy theory. Pippin's still got it.

The Shattered Isles was once a beautiful fantasy land full of magic, though even the parts preserved by the lightning barriers show a wretchedness brought on by the destruction of the Gates of Death. The Line Bulls of the Pride of Duskwall have no time to imagine the world as it was, and so they busy themselves with downtime in the city of Wintercliff. Pippin poses a charged question. Andrel gets crafty. Drix almost leaves town without upsetting anyone.

Content Warning: (1:11:00-1:12:45) Law enforcement abusing power, Andrel is slapped and money is taken from her

The Imperial Railways advertises that Line Bulls clear entangled ghosts from electrical fields in the way that one might bring a spider out of their home. The Pride of Duskwall must now grapple with the messy reality of a ghost that's made it's way onto the train itself, minimizing damage to the train and any persons inside. Drix makes things worse. Andrel swallows her anxiety. Pippin holds a friend tight. After the main episode, The Pride of Duskwall receives it's first complaint from the suggestion box (email below)
